"I hope you didn’t give her any trouble at all because I know you Felicia, you never want to let people be in peace especially when you aren’t," Mary warned, which irritated Felicia even more than she always was.
"And look who’s talking?" Felicia snapped. "We both know how much you want to have Erika change her mind about letting you spend the rest of your life here in jail. That’s why you are trying to act nice to her but you know that those hands of yours are covered in blood, Mary. You’ve killed too many people for you to be acquitted so easily so forget that dream of yours since it’s never coming to pass," Felicia added.
Juliet walked forward, dressed in a similar yellow shirt as the others, and stood in front of Mary, acting like her shield.
"Oh wow, the daughter is here to defend her mother," Felicia mocked while clapping her hands. "And what is it that you’ve co to say now? Do you want to shut up, respect your mother, or watch my tongue? Which is it this ti?" Felicia asked.
Juliet glared at Felicia but the latter wasn’t scared by her stares at all and looked directly into her eyes.
"Yes, you should watch your tongue Felicia because I will rip it from your mouth before I leave this place so you’d better watch it else, you know what will happen," Juliet warned and as soon as those words ca out of her mouth, Felicia erupted into waves of laughter.
"Will you keep it down there? This isn’t a market place so shut up before I shut it for you?!" Madam Laura yelled from where she was even though she was also watching the drama unfold right in front of her eyes.
Imdiately, Felicia closed her mouth and continued to glare at Juliet.
"You’d better watch out, Juliet. Yes, you will be leaving this place soon but that doesn’t an that nothing can’t happen till then," Felicia threatened before she treated them like air and laid back down on the bed that we share with hardwood.
"Don’t you ever think of resting right now, you still have to clean my cell room rember?" Madam Laura reminded Felicia and the latter glared at the ceiling of the cell room. She was back to this lifestyle. The sa thing she’d escaped from years ago.
Gritted her teeth until she was tried, Felicia finally got up, strode towards Madam Laura, and asked,
"Do you want to clean it now or wait a bit?"
Madam Laura glared at her head to toe before she nodded her head. "Clean it now," she ordered, her tone so sharp and piercing that it hurt the eardrums and it took all of Felicia’s self-control to not attack the old woman right there.
Felicia nodded and walked away to fetch water into a bucket and get soap as well.
"She’s so stupid," Madam Laura insulted from behind her which Felicia heard but didn’t react to.
After Felicia had gotten her arrested again after they’d escaped, Madam Laura had vowed to make Felicia’s life a living hell when she ca.
She knew Felicia was coming back since she was a criminal, just like her and all that needed to be done was for her to get caught.
The very first day that Felicia was arrested and kept in jail, Madam Laura didn’t know that it was Felicia due to her facial change but Felicia was aware and tried to not get in contact with Madam Laura as much as possible Mary and Juliet had spoilt everything when they’d recognized her and called her by her na. And since madam Laura still recognized Mary? She believed that person would have to be Felicia.
Sighting Mary and Juliet about to walk away, Madam Laura imdiately called the both of them.
"And where do you think you are going?" She questioned both of them while her shoulders were still getting massaged. Finding her hand fan, she threw it at Juliet and ordered. "Use that and keep cool and if you don’t do it faster than the last ti, I will give you a very big slap on your cheeks," she threatened.
Juliet shared a look with her mother but they had no say or anything. Since they got transferred from the jail that Edward had kept them into the local prison, their lives had taken a worse turn but after eting Madam Laura who got transferred from California to New York, things only got worse.
Mary already fed Juliet with the info she knew about Madam Laura and has inford her to never cross paths with the woman, and when she is asked to do sothing for her, she does it imdiately and leaves.
Rembering her mother’s words, Juliet snatched the hand fan from Madam Laura’s hand and started waving it to cool the old woman.
"I don’t think you would want to provoke young girl so next ti, you’d better not snatch the hand fan from my hands like that again if you know what’s good for you," Madam Laura warned. Turning to look at Mary who was standing like a statue, she said, "You are going to wash my clothes."
Mary didn’t want to argue much with the old lady and imdiately nodded her head.
"Yes, I understand. I will do that right now," said Mary, and she turned, about to leave and do what she’d been instructed to do but unfortunately, Madam Laura wasn’t pleased with her reply. Having her obey her so easily wasn’t fun for her at all so she added,
"I want you to wash the clothes of everyone here as well."
As soon as Juliet heard those words, she imdiately paused her job and interrupted,
"My mother is not going to wash the clothes of any other person here."
"You really are your mother’s bodyguard, but too bad for you, I am the one that gives orders here and you obey."
